Re: John Oliver on OAN misinformation idiocy
Faith, I never heard China virus until President Trump started throwing it around. Wuhan virus was used quite a bit, sort of like Ebolavirus, Hantavirus, and other such combinations - place name - virus. That’s how novel viruses were named, by international agreement, for quite a few years. Place of first outbreak- virus.
China is a pretty big country. China virus is a Trump/Fox News attempt to divert responsibility for combatting it to The Other. It’s ours, too, now.

Re: John Oliver on OAN misinformation idiocy
Oh, I’m sorry. I should have said that China is a pissy tiny
place, small enough to uniquely identify this year’s new virus’s origin without ambiguity. My mistake.

Re: John Oliver on OAN misinformation idiocy
Not my rules, kiddo. The rules of the international virology community.
And China and Wuhan each have two - exactly two - syllables.

Re: Chicago area hospital drive-thru tests more people with antibodies than active virus
This all suggests that we’re dealing with the California virus, not the China virus. Right, Faith?

Re: Volunteers?
How many of those True Believers are there in the US? Six or eight? Two dozen?
